Well firstly - a couple of weeks back I got this beauty of Ozballer23! We had a bit of a blue over this card when he won it, but we patched up our differences, are now good mates, and I ended up with the card.....
- My 5 year old son Jack said "Dad, is this a disco basketball card?"
#46 and #'d #21/49
My first elevation card and I AM A FAN!!
THEN.................
Out of the blue a while back a high end KG collector from Taiwan wrote to me and offered some of - in fact the nicest 2 KG jersey numbered cards I have ever seen!! The first one was a 99-00 UD Game Used Super Patch #21/25 which had 4 colours and 6 colour breaks!! It was the MOTHER of all jersey numbered cards. (I have a pic but didn't want to post it as I don't own it)
Anyway after writing to him for a week and getting no reply I was tearing my hair out!!! (I have a pic of this too if u like...)
I sold 2 KG autos that weren't jersey numbered to try and finance the card. I was getting highly pissed off cos he wasn't replying
THEN (MKII!)
I realised my emails weren't getting thru to him so I tried via my yahoo email account and he wrote back straight away!!!! UNFORTUNATELY because he hadn't heard from me he'd organised a 5 card mega deal with a Japanese collector for BIG $$ and the #21/25 superpatch was included. I offered him way more than I'd ever paid for any card but he had promised it to the Japanese guy and he wouldn't budge.
I WAS GUTTED!!!
HOWEVER......
The 2nd card was still available and is still by far the most I have paid for a Garnett card and the 2nd most ever for a piece of cardboard.......After I recovered emtionally we managed to work out a deal for this puppy.
I present #47 in the quest for 50
.
.
.
.
.
.
My first ever #21/21 card and probably the last
.
.
.
.
.
and by far the rarest KG I own (even though I have a 1/3 patch!!!)
.
.
.
And it ain't no buyback!!!
Cheers for looking!!
